The Songs of Duparc at Lammermuir Festival (2/4)

From the Lammermuir Festival in East Lothian, renowned pianist Malcolm Martineau is joined by four of the UK’s outstanding singers to explore the sixteen songs of Henri Duparc.

From the Lammermuir Festival in East Lothian, the renowned pianist Malcolm Martineau is joined this week by four of the UK’s outstanding singers to explore the sixteen songs of Henri Duparc, alongside music by his contemporaries. Today the award-winning baritone and former Â鶹Éç New Generation Artist James Newby joins Malcolm. They perform a dramatic selection of Duparc’s songs about a galloping horse and a suitor rewarded with a kiss by Phidyle. Alongside these, Ravel depicts an array of creatures from a cricket to a kingfisher and Debussy, (who studied with the same teacher as Duparc - Cesar Franck), sets words by the French poet of the Middle-Ages Francois Villon.
